Oh yes, that’s the SEX TOY I’m going to buy!

I read reviews of course, but I'm on a budget so points really matter!

I will usually read all or most of the reviews. Read the different ratings as well, If I really want to like a toy then I read positives first but I always have to read the critical reviews. I have to know what if anything went wrong with the toy. I will also make a poll or discussion to help if I'm having a hard time making a decision, especially if it's an expensive toy.

I try and read a couple of reviews, 3 at least before ordering something usually. If I can, I'll read them all and then I have a better idea about whether I'll like it or not.

I feel like reading two or three reviews is important.

It does look like that the average number of reviews are 3 before someone makes their purchase. Thanks for sharing!

I agree. I'm the same way.

I usually read quite a few reviews to get a wider range of opinions on the toy, especially if I looking to buy a certain type of toy rather that one specifically.

I know it's not the best policy, but my #1 priority for sex toys is looks. I mean, this is fantasy, right? I will read a few reviews (maybe 3-4) to see if it meets my requirements (material, vrooms, and if it is sturdy are the biggest factors). then it's right to the shopping cart for when I feel ready to indulge myself!

I read quite a few reviews whenever I consider a toy. Even after I've decided that I want to buy something, I will still read more reviews on the product as well as reviews for similar competitive products.

I usually read 2, one negative and one positive. More if I'm super excited/curious/just unsure or if the reviews gave conflicting information.

I read all the reviews if I'm seriously considering the product. If I'm going to buy it I want to know everything about it, good or bad.

I'll read at least 3 reviews with the most EU ratings. And if it's an expensive toy I'm after, I might even PM the reviewers, and ask them whether they still consider the toy worthwhile or not.

I look for several reviews and even use a web search for more reviews. In all honesty having points on hand to offset the cost helps with the more expensive items.

I usually read at least 2-3 reviews before purchasing something. If I'm on the fence about it, I'll read more if there are more to read!

I find searching polls and discussions really valuable for trying to make a decision!

I read as many reviews as I can, this goes for every single thing I buy.

I know what we like - and will read as many reviews for those products - and similar products for comparison. I read them critically - just because someone liked or didn't like it, doesn't mean that much. Good reviews tell WHY someone liked or didn't like the product - this is where I can really learn something.

I guess I read about 3 reviews but it depends on the toy. I will read through some reviews in their entirety and others I might just skim for performance and pros and cons. Sometimes I do a forum search to see if others have been talking about it.

I usually read as many as possible but it's mostly around 5 or 6 before I decide.

I do simple research about the item on EF reviews and comments usually helps me

Read 5-6 reviews, look at pics and weigh pros/cons, decide if I really want it.
I like think about it for a while before making a purchase.
Also, the # of stars for all the reviews help. If there's a review with a few 4 and 3 stars but no 5 stars I'll pass. If it has a ton of 4 and 5 star reviews then it's probably good.
The negative reviews are always really helpful and I read those a lot.

Great perspective, thanks for sharing! You have expressed normal human behavior.

I like to read every last review. By the time I read the third or fourth review though, I've already made of my mind. I read the rest for confirmation of my decision basically.

I have read about 5-7 reviews before I add a toy to my wishlist.

I need to read at least two reviews, sometimes up to 4. I like to have a pro and a con review, to see if the pros outweigh the cons for me.

I like reading 3 review, reading a couple of polls and if there isn't enough reviews to satisfy me I go to the company webiste for more info before I decide. I always prefer the reviews though here on site, I trust the quality of the information provided by users with experience.
